Hi Nick,
Ok, I added -v back, this gives
[root@jhbasterisk ~]# isql -v pgdb-cdr dbuser password
[S1000][unixODBC]The database does not exist on the server
or user authentication failed.
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect
[root@jhbasterisk ~]#
If I do
[root@jhbasterisk ~]# psql -U dbuser -d dbname
all works fine:
[root@jhbasterisk ~]# psql -U dbuser -d dbname
Password for user asteriskcdruser:
psql (9.4.4)
Type "help" for help.
dbname=> \d+

So Postgres itself does seem to know of the user and the database... but
accessing them via ODBC goes south somehow.
Is there any way I can raise the verbosity level (for example)? I've tried
isql -vvvvvv but I still just get "Database soed not exist on the server or
user authentication failed".
Thank you very much for your kind assistance.
Regards,

The error has gone because you didn't have the -v option.
My point was you cant specify the database on the command line with isql
isql -v pgdb-cdr dbuser password
Will show you the error.
